VISION & MISSION

VISION & MISSION: “The kingdom of God has come to us.” Jesus began to preach, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” “the kingdom of God is in your midst.” Blessed is everyone who will eat bread in the kingdom of God. Everything is possible for him who believes. God is our strength and through Him we will encourage the timid, and help the weak. With God's mercy we shall go into all the world and preach the good news of gospel; and proclaim in Jesus’ name about repentance for forgiveness of sins to all nations. We pray for salvation, healing and redemption in Christ Jesus. By faith in love and hope, we press on toward the goal according to His plan. For, nothing is impossible with God. mUic];ehLKm];TL,wrL.JPL;sw]:n}.Et,pQn]w}.tL,hw];yw].eSmI;w}.yU,mUiw]:lQw]El:tuik].mL;sm]nL,"kUn];ekL.etkin]Kw]:mun];nG];mUic];ehLKm];JPL;sw]:n}.mI;tac];lImac],klL,kU:ekL."tL,ekL.yum],n}.An],lG]ekL:pQn]l}:kU:mQw];yw]."JPL;sw]:pQn]AQn]hqc];hw];El:lUv]:mn];sw]:eShw];etpn]hqc];tI:ekL.sG]lQk].sG]ng}.eSEl:sg}:Tqm]ekL.hqc];AUn]:nuc];sG]Kw]"lUv]:krunL,JPL;sw]:eShw];etkGL,nG];km];PL,elL;kn}.kU:tI:'ehL;lat]:Kaw],lIkGam];JtL;sw]:'El:hgc].eSL,lgc]:ngc],twa},sG]Kuin];tL,l}:An]pg},wac];KGac].pn]nn].'tI:kUn];kU:mUic];kU:sUiw].KUiw];lUv]:suiw]:sw]:ey,Su"hw];SU;tgc];nG];suiw]:sw]:ey,SuKrit]:Ek,Kzt]'yUt];yL'T},Tut],pUt];pg},pn]lgt]:lqw];"lUv]:tac];yum],'tac];hk].'tac];muc]:mgc];eShw];suin],hqc];tuic]:Kuin]:nL:kGL,sU;yUic];ma}sgm];wac];Pqn]sw]:"pUiw]:wL:epL;pL;TL,wrL.JPL;sw]:n}.An]Am],pQn]l}:Am],mI;"

QUIETING THE STORM
Peace in the Midst of Turmoil

It had been a long, tiring day for Jesus. He had been healing the sick and teaching the crowd at the lake shore since early morning. Now He longed for a quiet place to rest. So Jesus said to His disciples, “Let us cross the lake to the other side.”
But it was not easy to get away from the crowd. Everyone wanted to stay with Jesus just a little longer. Finally He and His disciples were able to set sail for the opposite shore of the lake. Some other boats also set off at the same time. No doubt they carried some people who were determined to follow Jesus wherever He went.
Soon Jesus was fast asleep on a pillow in the back of the boat. The disciples relaxed in the cool breeze as they sailed toward the land of Gadara. They watched the sun sliding beneath the horizon and the first few stars winking into view. It was a pleasant evening to be on the Sea of Galilee. There was no hint of the fierce storms that often engulfed the lake.
Then it happened. Black clouds swept down from the mountainside, turning the gentle breeze into an angry storm. The boat began pitching and tossing in the raging sea. Again and again huge waves smashed against it, sending great surges of water over the sides.
The disciples became frantic. More and more water poured into the boat. Even the seasoned fishermen, Peter, James, and John, started to panic.
At last the disciples began to look for Jesus. To their amazement He was still fast asleep. Quickly they awoke Him, crying, “Master, don’t you care if we die?”
“Where is your faith?” Jesus gently rebuked the disciples. “Why are you so fearful?”
Then Jesus arose and commanded, “Peace! Be still!” Immediately the wind and rain stopped and the lake became calm again.
The disciples were stunned. They asked, “Who is this man that can make the wind and the water obey Him?” Without a doubt, they knew that Jesus must be the Son of God.

Matthew 8:23-27
Mark 4:35-41
Luke 8:22-25

Caption: Jesus calms a raging storm.

Parents:       All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. (Matthew 28:18)

Children:    1. Were the disciples afraid of the storm?
2. Was Jesus afraid?
3. What happened to the storm?
